zebredy Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Well I'm not expecting it to be anything I will want to see, the other three Massive events, arn't my cup of tea, but you never know (yeah right!) And yes I agree there are too many events on next year, how are people going to aford them all, and how can showmasters make money if people can't aford to go to all there events like they used to when there was only 3/4 SMs events a year?

LLAP A lot of people cannot attend Showmasters events at present due to the location. I have always found it difficult to get to MK and Manchester. So, with a broader spectrum of places, you will find a lot more people able to travel. If you read the entire board you will see many people who have commented that they cannot go because they cannot get there. People will only go bankcrupt if they decide to go to all events and spend beyond their means. Far too many people getting all dramatic. I think this is a damn positive step for people who cannot presently attend events due to timing and location. The amount of newbies on here for Eclipse and Lockdown is amazing, so there is a market there. You need to think outside of the box that is this forum.

Showmasters Admin Too Tall Posted November 16, 2007 Showmasters Admin Share Posted November 16, 2007 Just to clarify a point someone made above. This is an EXTRA event, not a replacement for G-Mex or any other current event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noddy Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Is there really space for another show? Anyway hopefully a New Show for 2008 will be more successful than another show and Ring Con which of course were the new shows for 2007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilvaNemesis Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Is this instead of a Collectormania GMEX 4 in Manchester? Being in Stoke-on-Trent, Manchester is good for me to travel to, that plus no celebrity would ever come here! Birmingham and Manchester are good travel points for me. I still hope there's a GMEX 4 next year and that this is as well as, rather than instead of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway hopefully a New Show for 2008 will be more successful than another show and Ring Con which of course were the new shows for 2007 Ring Con - the price you pay when relying on someone else. I think Showmasters learnt their lesson there. They are big enough to run signing events and conventions. And the amount pencilled in for next year is nowhere near too many. Jason & Co are not expecting us to go to every single event and are catering for ALL tastes. I know of quite a few people going to/intending to go to Eclipse and Lockdown, but rarely go to LFACC & CM unless a specific guest shows up. Conventions are a totally different beast to signing events as many seasoned convention attendees like myself and Morden (the only ones I know people!) will attest to. If this is the final Massive Event for 2008, then the all likelihood is that it will be a convention. I am very much looking forward to attending Afternath as it is from an era in my youth I fondly remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
